California Bee Company- Toyon Honey

Rare and Delicious!  This honey is the 2023 summer crop harvested from Jeremy's coastal apiaries in See Canyon near Avila Beach.  Toyon honey has not come in for the last few years due to the drought, but now it is back!  Toyon is a California native shrub that blooms in July. 

Flavor profile is a complex layering of orange colored fruits like canteloupe, citrus, and pumpkin with an earthy undertone.  This is a great medium strength all-purpose honey.

This honey will naturally crystallize.  Crystallized honey is great for spreading on toast, and a spoonful will easily dissolve in hot tea.  To uncrystallize the honey, put the whole jar with lid on in a pot of very hot water for 15-20 minutes.
